Correspondence of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Feb. lon the eth day
of December, 1868, three men were sworn
in as members of the House of Represen-
tatives, whose names were destined to
stand high in the annals of the Repu bic.
These men were William B. Allison,
James G. Blaine, end James A. Garfield.
The first was thirty-four years Of age, the
other thirty-fve and the last thirty-six,
All had commenced life at the bottom
round of the ladder; all Of them had been
farmers lads; all had studied law, and all
entered public life about the same time.
From the day they became acquainted
they remained fast friends, ana
during the entire eighteen years
they were together in Congress,
that friendship was never broken or
marred. After awhile tbs ir lives diverged
q little. Garfield became President,
Blaine, Secretary of State, and Allison
kept his old place in the Senate. Up to
this time thew had been, seemingly, neck
and neck in the race for fame, and when
the change came some Of his frienCs said
that Allison had been outstripped. Bat
time has told slightly different story.
CART Id is dead, aine is private citi-
zen, while Allison is still in public life
gaming new laurels every year.
